Hello everybody, it's freezing cold, but I'm at Ford Field right now to watch the Detroit Lions play a football game. It's my first ever professional football game and we're very excited. We pre-gamed at a bar nearby. I wanted to tailgate, but it's a little too cold. We had beers, and we're about to get inside. Go Lions! Wow, usually I'm stuck up in the nosebleeds, but this time we've got perfect seats. We're right by the end zone, so I hope we see some good touchdowns. They gave us a light-up bracelet that's synchronized To the music! It's happy hour. Let's go get some drinks. Hello, do you guys do the Power Hour here?
The drink specials and stuff?
I believe Power Hour just ended, right? Oh my gosh, okay, no, it's all right. What beers do you have? We just have the Bud Light Miller Lite Ultra and the Sam's. Okay, you will find other things throughout the venue like you would find other specialty beers. Like everybody kind of has different stuff. Okay, let's do a Bud Light and I'll get a pretzel as well. Yes, awesome. Thank you. Can we do one Big Papa and one Blue Moon? Did you want the spicy cherry pepper relish on the Big Papa? No, that's all right. Yep. Okay.
Okay.
Can I get a first name, last initial for the order? Uh, Callie A. Callie, they'll call your name by the TV when your food's ready. Okay, thank you. We should just wait over here, yeah?
Got it.
Okay, thank you. $32. Wow, I just spent like $60 on 2 beers, a pretzel, and a sandwich. What a rip-off. Stadium food Sucks.
This is everything you ever wanted. Let's go Lions!
What are your thoughts on tonight's game?
Well, number one, we were so happy, so fortunate that Eun Hong got us tickets to this game, and it was exciting to watch them win this game because they clinched the playoffs first time in a long time for Detroit. So it's a huge win for the city of Detroit, something our fans been waiting for for a long, long time.
What does clinched mean?
That means they are in.
Yeah, we made it, made it to the playoffs.
We made it.
We're going all the way.
That's right, Super Bowl, here we come.
What about the crowd? What'd you think of the Detroit fans at this game?
They were into it. 65,000 screaming maniacs. It was loud.
It was a full house.
And it was tied with seconds left in the game and they kicked the field goal to win the game. We couldn't leave early on that.
Something I thought was cool was seeing how many fans were interacting with each other. You'd walk down the aisle and everyone would be giving you high fives. Anytime we got a touchdown, the people in front of you, behind you, turning around and giving high fives. That's pretty cool.
Everybody was happy.
It's like we're all in it together.
Yeah.
All grit.
All grit. That's what you got to have to do anything in life, just the ability to hang in there, grind it out until you reach your goal.
Right, it's like determination.
Absolutely.
Detroit's got grit. I had so much fun at the game, and it was my first ever NFL game, and I'm so happy we got to enjoy it together.
Me too. You couldn't have picked a better game to go see. You guys hit it out of the ballpark.
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
It was so enjoyable. I thank you much.
